Those legs and feet look very unnatural, you need to practice some anatomy and organic shapes in general.
Other than that they just look generally poorly made, the sock is unevenly thick, the shoes are oddly thin and the strings are far to thin and tiny for tf2, use scouts MNC shoes for reference.

The calves could just as well be copied from the standard model or the ali baba booties, both for consistency and saving you the trouble of getting it to look more natural

and why 50's when tf2 is set in the late 60's?
High tops also reads better as classic basketball shoes

(If Ronin: This is possibly worse than the horribly awful cowboy boots.
Get your shit together for gods sake we all know you are able to make fantastic stuff)

I think Jalcober made the model, so I agree on a little practice on organic shapes. But I agree with you on ronin should do the same.

To whoever modeled the demo headband (it's confusing because you all let psyke post images of your stuff instead of yourself. Why do you do that? He gets all the supposed credit for your work. Why not just post yourself so we know who actually made the thing, instead of who gave it some base colours? Everyone's going to assume Ronin made it.)

Have you submitted it to the workshop? Or are you trying to figure out the facial flexes? Because, honestly, I don't think you have to worry about that. Like the all-father, I think that's something they may fix themselves if they like the item enough. And its a really nice hat idea! Honestly, me and sexyrobot make that scout headband and think we had a good item, then you made one for demo, and I'm all like 'mother fucker!'.

I also think the shoes should be high tops, and that the leg part should be a sock. Everything about demo is long and thick (pardon the pun) and those boots look a little tiny at the moment. There's also something weird about seeing demos are legs.

See not he problem is here is that the couvre always sticks against medic's default labcout out unless painted waterlogged labcoat, the matches on the other hand blend in even if they where neon fucking pink due to their bland color on an already dark character. It needs some strong variation for it to be a worthwhile item. I hate to say it but without the magnify on the matches picture I never would have even noticed them, granted Couvre's backpack has a magnifying glass but that's because the picture they chose to start with was an incredibly small shot of the medic torso.

Besides, couvre was made in like, 40 minutes so it's not fair to be put up for comparison

me and hecates have been in talks about something like this for about a week or so. but i got college, and cant just model anything on the drop of a... well excuse the pun... HAT So ima continue with his original concept without this in mind, sorry mate.

i don't really care, a this wasn't my idea i did it for a friend and b it was an 8 min job so any criticism i get i don't honestly care about, was just seeing if anyone was liking the way it was heading, it turns out no, so project shut.

The 'Daily Dose' or the 'Needless Needles'?
agree for Dose, disagree for Needles.

and opinions and such, you know the drill.

the item itself looks simply fantastic!
but i'm a bit worried they will be clipping and get somewhat covered by his arms,
what about the other design you had with the needles on a belt between the suspenders?
or maybe in some other attachment to his belt?

that exists, but that's for another time.

Also everyone's choice of name I approve of greatly, that means I can get away with having made a faggoty new paint style

I let psyke post screen shots because i dont usually have the time. Also, when he posts on his end its generally because he is working on the vmt tweaks and some detailing and testing my rigs. I usually work on texturing or other items while he posts his workflow. I don't mind him getting "some" credit since many you know already that i make the models.

It really doesn't matter as much as who made the model or texture, what matters is if the item is good or not. I guys feel its not a good item, give them a pat for trying then lead them to a possible direction. If they like it, then you get a little stamp on the item thats being submitted. If they don't like it, everybody else will know that you helped anyway.

On the demo legs, i feel its adequate enough. Athletes have long, thin shins. I do agree with the shape of the socks and it needs to be a more fabric-y shape than sharp. And yes as a basketball buff, i prefer high cut chuck taylors please.
